Jim Irsay Had 29K In Cash When Arrested

Last updated on Thursday, March 27, 2014

(CARMEL) - Police say Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay had $29,000 in cash with him when he was arrested last week on suspicion of intoxicated driving.

Carmel Police released documents on Irsay's March 16 arrest through a public records request.

An officer writes that he stopped Irsay's SUV after it twice stopped on a city street for no apparent reason.

The officer wrote Irsay appeared disoriented and said he was trying to find his house. Much of the cash was found in a briefcase and bags on the passenger's side floorboard.

Prosecutors haven't decided whether to charge Irsay over the numerous prescription drugs that officers found in his vehicle. An initial hearing originally scheduled for March 26 was postponed until Irsay is charged. He is currently at an out-of-state facility getting inpatient treatment.

Irsay attorney James Voyles didn't immediately return a message from The Associated Press seeking comment.

This is a developing story that will be updated.
